Chapter Thirty-Four: The Thief (2)

Li Xin ran all the way to the village chief's house. Fortunately, it was not busy farming, so the village chief happened to be at home. Li Xin told the village chief that there seemed to be a thief at home.

The villagers in Guihua Village are relatively simple, and I have never heard of anything being stolen from any house. Although the villagers occasionally quarrel, and sometimes fight over disputes over interests, there has never been a break-in and theft for most of the day.

When the village chief Li Changming heard this, he thought it was okay and quickly stood up and went out with Li Xin.

When I arrived under the old osmanthus tree in the village, I saw several men from the village chatting under the tree. The village chief shouted, and those people were surprised when they heard that there was a thief in the village. You said it was just an encounter.

Robbers can still resist. If they are in a village, just shout and everyone will come to help, and there may not be any losses. But stealing is different. It is sneaky, and who knows when the things in the house will be stolen.

It was stolen!

It was still broad daylight and you dared to go to other people’s houses to steal things. If it were night, you would have to steal all over the village! After hearing this, the villagers found some things and followed the village chief to Li Xin’s house. Some of them

After lifting their hoes, some picked up a piece of firewood, and some picked up a big stone from the ground. Others hurriedly ran to call the people around them. By the time they arrived at the door of Li Xin's house, there was already a huge group of people.

.

Li Xin stepped forward and opened the door, then led everyone inside. There was still movement in the inner courtyard, and it seemed that the two people had not left yet. Li Xin sneered in her heart. After this day, she wanted to see

One look at how the couple still had the nerve to wander around. Originally, she didn't want to care about the past, but she didn't expect that this shameless couple would still persist in their evil intentions.

A group of people entered the hanging flower door and bypassed the marble screen, and the scene in the yard came into view. The doors of the main room and the east and west wings were opened, and they could see that the things inside were messed up and the floor was in a mess.

The yard had been dug up and there were potholes everywhere. Because he wanted to plant some flowers and trees in the yard, Li Xin only paved a path leading to the main house and the east and west wings with bluestone slabs, and the rest of the house was covered with bluestones.

The land had only been carefully hammered at that time, so even though it was dirt, it was very smooth and there would be no dust when walking on it.

But now there is no previous flatness, there are pits everywhere, it looks like you have to dig three feet into the ground! I don’t know what the two people are looking for to make the yard look like this. At this time, Li Xinzhen

I really wanted to go up and chop those two people with a kitchen knife. Just steal things! It would be a pity for such a person to die if her home was left in such a state.

In the main room, the two people who were searching everywhere with their heads buried did not realize that so many people had come into the yard, and they were still searching everywhere seriously.

"Tell me, where did these little bastards hide their things? They've searched everywhere they should, but they haven't found anything! They even dug up the vegetable garden in the back." The woman said.

Speaking of.

"Forget it! It looks like we can't find it, so let's go first! Don't let anyone find it."

"You're talking lightly, that's a few hundred taels of silver! The big house in the county is just gone. Oh, you said I've been working as a cow and a horse for you for so many years, how much hardship I have suffered! I finally have some hope.

Why are you so happy for nothing!" The woman actually had a tendency to cry, and she sat down on the ground and didn't get up.

"Why are you howling? You are really afraid that others won't know! Leave quickly! Think of a solution when you go back."

"Think of a way? What else can you think of!"

"There will always be a way, but there are just a few children, and there is nothing we can do against them. Let's go quickly! There are many people entering the mountain recently, but unlike before, we don't have to worry about people coming here."

"Okay, let's go back first! Wait, bring everything with you. There's a lot of fabrics, and by the way, there's also some meat! Move them all back, and catch that chicken too, old chicken, then

The soup will definitely be very fragrant when stewed.”

"Okay, since I haven't found anything, I naturally need something else to go back to. I can't come here in vain."

The two people were talking to themselves, and naturally they didn't notice that in the yard, the village chief's face turned green, and the villagers following him also had expressions of indignation on their faces. They had seen shameless people, but never such shameless ones. Li Xin smiled slightly.

With her head lowered, she was looking forward to the next scene!

"I'll beat you shameless thieves to death." A villager couldn't bear it anymore and rushed over with a piece of thick firewood in his hand. Before the two people could turn around, they were beaten on the head and face by the firewood.

.The two people were stunned for a moment. They didn't even think about resisting, but they were beaten up by the fat man.

"Drag the person out." The village chief gave the order, and the villagers rushed forward, and three or two people subdued the person. After a while, the two people were kneeling in the middle of the yard, and the woman yelled

He hugged a few pieces of fabric tightly with a determined expression. The two of them were Li Xin's second uncle and second aunt - Li Changgui and Yang Lianhua.

"Burglary requires you to send it to the Yamen to be beaten, don't you know?" The village chief sat on a chair and stared coldly at Li Changgui and his wife who were kneeling on the ground. Although he had known for a long time that these two people were incompetent, they actually knew how to do it.

It was really unexpected for him to do such a thing. He was actually his cousin of the same race. Where did this put his face?

"We already know that we were wrong. Cousin, please don't send us to the Yamen!" Li Changgui also panicked when he heard that he was going to send us to the Yamen. After entering the Yamen, you will lose your skin even if you don't die! Beaten

The board is definitely indispensable, and I don’t know how he will be squeezed by those government officials! Of course he also knew that he would be sent to the government office for burglary, but he didn’t expect to be caught on the spot. Besides, he was just sleeping with his nephew

It's just a visit to my home. How serious a crime it is, it's so serious that I have to be sent to the Yamen.

"Village Chief! We can't just let them go like this. They dare to come and steal in broad daylight. With such courage, who knows which house they will steal from." A villager said loudly, and other villagers followed suit.

Agreed. The most feared thing in the village is a thief, which is impossible to guard against! It’s better to pay it back at home, at least it can keep an eye on it. If you also steal the food in the fields, what’s the point?

"Did you hear that? Everyone has said so. I can let you go anywhere." At this time, the village chief felt that the fire in his heart was getting stronger and stronger. This Li Changgui really didn't know how to behave anymore. He did this.

The thing about him has already made people grit their teeth with hatred. He actually dared to call him cousin in front of so many people. Didn't he want to make him favoritistic? If he was a little bit lenient, he didn't know how he would be treated by the villagers.

Pointing and pointing!
